In Proverbs 8:1-4 we have a scripture in which Solomon describes Wisdom as calling out to mankind. Jesus also called out to mankind. Are these similarities coincidental? Why or why not?

I do not believe these are coincidences. I believe that this passage is prophetic and discusses the Messiah calling out to the world just as He did. It may also be a reference to the many prophets who called out warnings to Isreal and tried to talk the people out of idolatry. I know that lots of passages of God's word can have multiple applications although the writer only meant to address one thing. This passage literally means that wisdom calls to the young like a parent calls to a wayward child. If the young do not hear and choose instead to chase after an adulteress relationship or any other sin they are choosing the way of hardship.

There are times when I feel like an Internet caveman. I feel that way when I want to do things on the Internet that I know others do regularly but I cannot do them. I can ask and usually eventually figure it out but it takes awhile. I feel like I am wearing animal skins and carrying a club.

Twas the day after Christmas and all through the house
Everybody had Covid including the mouse
The doctors had said "No family there"
Nobody listened nor gave a care
The family all gathered in their usual place
All masks were off to see the smiling face
In the Living room there arose such a clatter
I sprang from my chair to see what was the matter
Aunt Mable and Aunt Sally were aiding Uncle Ben
His oxygen ran out and his covid moved in
He was sneezing and coughing and spreading the virus
He had the disease but for a family was desirous
Now the whole family is infected and breaking the rules
They were conspiracy theorists now they feel like fools.

Prompt: "Our crowning glory as humans are actually corpse curls cloaked with sultry scalp grease to be judged by the world according to Therese Oneill. What era's hairstyles did you enjoy the most?"

I enjoyed the women's haircuts of the 80's except for Afros. I enjoy the men's hairstyles of today. I typically always wore my hair short. There was one time I let it grow out to three inches long and got a wavy perm in it. The perm grew out so a friend of mine, who was a Hollywood hairstylist fixed it for me. Then I put on designer pants and a cashmere sweater and went to my uncle's funeral. I was so gussied up that my Grandma did not recognize me. She started flirting with me and making a fool of herself so I spoke to her. She recognized my voice and felt like an idiot.
